Linn Adikt cart

Posted by: Guido on 18 February 2002

Hi All!

Just read about a new Linn MM cartridge called ADIKT - filling the K 18 Gap; has anyone further information?
Furthermore, are k 18 replacement styli still available somewhere?
Just in case...
Happy Monday

Sadly, official K18 replacements are no longer available. However, the Audio Technica AT95E stylus does replace the K9 stylus and MIGHT fit the K18. It only costs about £20. Having said this, a worn K18 may sound better than an AT95E replacement stylus.

Anyway, the Adikt is predicted to be available in April for $350.

How worn is "worn"? Mines got about 2 years infrequent use on the clock. Swapped it for an AT95E and immediately went back to the old K9 stylus.

Anyway, only 2 months to go until I'm Adikted wink

Well I just did, upgraded from Basik to LP12, hence renewed interest in my cartridge, i.e. it's about time I start looking into a new cartridge

Or maybe you have another deck in mind... eek
